The Right Approach
I have been chewing on this right elbow business and feel like there is a commonality between the best ball-strikers. None of them run out of right arm, in fact many of them (Trevino, Hogan) have a substantial amount of right elbow bend well after impact. I read a caption for a Hunter Mahan sequence that said something to the effect that the bent right arm "stabilizes the club face." The face flashes closed when the left wrist bends as a result of the right arm. I understand that hinge action is a function of the left wrist, I am refering to the influence the right elbow has on the #3 Acc. Daryl's rigid power package crusade helped me see this. Check out Furyk's at right elbow at end and impact! Amazingly there is not as much variance as you would think. My best swing thought EVER "Take the bend through the ball!" I may have the pull that has plagued me for 20 years whipped!
